Some bitch will be like "oh you couldn't speak because of how stressed you were at school? Why didn't you tell a teacher?"

// whitsantos, ideas of self-harm implied

something about trinity, who has this harmful coping mechanism, finally having someone around. she's so used to helping others when she's struggling that she can't even realize when she's the recipient of it.

a scalpel heavy in her pocket the entire rest of her shift, her head loud with a droning static that she longs to get rid of. before, that would be exactly how it went. she'd go home alone and take care of it.

but now she has whitaker, who is waiting for her to be done so they can leave together. whitaker, who keeps talking when she gets tired and quiet, who asks safe questions and stays close. who proposes they watch some shitty tv on the sofa, not needing to talk at all, until they fall asleep. who keeps her distracted while she changes into pajamas, forgetting about the scalpel in her pocket.

whitaker, who finds it later when moving their clothes over from the dryer and doesn't mention it. who just throws the scalpel away.
